It is well past midnight now, and I write these words so that other men may know the full story of that ill-fated voyage of the deep sea tug alphabet.

The horse was not a large vessel, but sturdily built for its task. And though it seems in age, it was only a little over six months ago that we sailed from Liverpool, England. Bound out across the North Atlantic to deliver our ship to her new owners, a salvage firm of Boston, Massachusetts.

Hand-by to cost off! We put out with a reduced compliment, just a handful of men, twelve and all. We were a new crew, sent on board for this journey over the deep sea lane. and I sailed as sheep off under the command of Captain Gottlieu Walker.

Second made Harvey Goodroom and chief engineer Alec McCavish being the other members of our small saloon. I remember we departed on a cold wet day with a fog lying low over Birkenhead and the northwest wind blowing fresh in our teeth.
